    The Search For Sheree | Bonus: The Convenient Alternative | 14

    Ten years before Sheree Warren disappeared, another young mother vanished from her workplace in the suburbs of Ogden, Utah. Nancy Perry Baird’s case shares many similarities with Sheree Warren’s. Both were young mothers, recently divorced, working to support themselves. Police in both cases theorized a serial killer might be responsible. To this day, many of Nancy Baird's own relatives believe Ted Bundy abducted and killed her; a claim Bundy denied. Cold has obtained exclusive access to the Nancy Baird case files. In this bonus episode of Cold season 3, journalist and host Dave Cawley uncovers new evidence that illuminates Ted Bundy’s role in Nancy’s disappearance. Season 3 of Cold includes descriptions of rape, sexual assault, murder and domestic violence. Please take care when listening. Free resources for escaping domestic abuse are available at thehotline.org. Support and tools for survivors of sexual violence can be found at rainn.org.

    The Search for Sheree | Talking Cold: Who Owns Your Case? | 11

    Who handles your case if you go missing or are murdered? Talking Cold is the after-show podcast that dives into the key issues raised in COLD. Season 3 of COLD tells the story of Sheree Warren, who disappeared from Salt Lake City, Utah in 1985. Her case remains unsolved today, partially because of police squabbles over jurisdiction. Talking Cold hosts Amy Donaldson and Sheryl Worsley ask retired Salt Lake County Sheriff Aaron Kennard and former Roy, Utah police chief Carl Merino why police egos and invisible borders sometimes get in the way of solving crimes.
